There are currently four different markup options on CurseForge. Each one is different and will be covered in more detail below.

WikiCreole

WikiCreole attempts to be a universal wiki markup language to be used across different wiki software. It is far more standardized and sane than many other wiki formats, especially MediaWiki and Curse Wiki. We hope for it to be an adequate successor to Curse Wiki on curseforge and wowace.

Please don't abuse this. Egregious use of colors may make us re-evaluate having this at all. Also, be aware of changing background colors. Green on black might look nice, but but Green on white might not.

Emotes

Note: Since unexpected emotes can mess up lines of code, all emotes must have whitespace surrounding them to turn into a graphical version.
